I had this loose transmission bolt.  So while I was under the car I said to myself, “self we could tighten this bolt or we could build a new frame”.  Since bolt tightening is so mundane I proceeded to build a new frame utilizing the original outside rails.  So I said, “self how can you have a new frame without updating the body”.  So some serious body mods were carried out that not many folks even notice.  Such as the filled body seams and the radiused cowl to door area.  Then came the interior redesign to meet the driving comfort of an old man.  A new crate 330 horsepower engine with a super T-10 transmission seemed fitting for a hot rod, so that was installed.  ’40 Lincoln brakes grace the front spindles along with a pair of hand formed scoops.   I have fun building cars and just as much fun driving them.  Road rash and all.  Now for some pics.  From Ward Jones
